In this workshop, Monica Prince, choreopoem scholar and creator, will lead participants through a series of exercises to write their own choreopoems. In addition to learning the choreopoem's historical context and contemporary uses, participants will discover principles of Black theatre, performance theory, and poetic forms to inform their work. At the end of the workshop, participants will hold virtual staged readings of their choreopoem drafts for feedback and celebration. This workshop is open to all writers at any level, especially those committed to social justice and equity for all, and performance experience is encouraged but not required. Writers are encouraged to bring their own source material (i.e., a chapbook of poems or prose, short stories, personal essays, play scripts, interviews, a manuscript of poems, etc.) or use the prompts provided to generate new content.
